APPENDIX II ANSWERS TO CIRCULAR. 471 



The moths are too much scattered. They lie up in the roofs of all the houses on the 

 farm ; under the boards or shingles; under the loose bark of dead trees, either on the 

 farm or in the woods. I guess that I shall winter a dozen or two in my dwelling- 

 house next winter. There are more than that number in my house to-day, and as they 

 are daily emerging from the chrysalides the number I suppose will increase. The 

 trouble would be to get at them. [D. Lee, Lowndes. 



None that I know of. This would be hard to do. Pine timber in our clearings after 

 the sap turns is very valuable for rails and posts, and would be entirely destroyed by 

 fires in destroying the moths in fields near. [H. Hawkins, Barbour. 



ARKANSAS. 



The burning of all cotton and corn stalks or other trash found on the ground has 

 shown that ground so treated was least attacked. [E. T. Dale, Miller. 

 None. [Norborne Young, Columbia. 

 None that I know of. [T. S. Edwards, Pope. 



FLORIDA. 



None. [John Bradford, Leon. 



These winter-quarters are not supposed to be known. [Robert Gamble, Leon. 



GEORGIA. 



No effort made to destroy the moth in winter- quarters. [E. M. Thompson, Jackson. 



None. [D. P. Luke, Berrien. 



Never here. [William A. Harris, Worth. 



I do not believe the moth has any " winter-quarters," but remains in the chrysalis 

 during the winter. [William Jones, Clarke. 



No effort has been made to destroy the moth in winter-quarters. [Timothy Fussell, 

 Coffee. 



Nothing in this locality. [M. Kemp, Marion. 



It is not here in its winter- quarters. [S. P. Odom, Dooly. 



LOUISIANA. 



No. [H. B. Shaw, Concordia. 



No effort has been made to destroy the moth in its winter-quarters that I know of. 

 [John A. Maryman, East Feliciana. 

 I know of none. [Dr. I. U. Ball, West Feliciana. 



MISSISSIPPI. 



None. Its winter-quarters are not known. [George V. Webb, Amite. 

 It never having been found where the moth winters, no efforts have been made to 

 destroy them there. [John C Russel, Madison. 

 No effort made. [Dr. E. H. Anderson, Madison. 

 No. [J. W. Burch, Jefferson. 

 No. [D. L. Phares, Wilkinson. 

 No. [C. Welch, Covington. 

 None that I know of. [William S. Lewis, Winston 



TENNESSEE. 



No effort has been made to destroy the moth in its winter-quarters, nor do I think 

 any such effort would be likely to prove very successful. [A. W. Hunt, Perry. 



NORTH CAROLINA. 



None. [F. I. Smith, Halifax. 



TEXAS. 



None. [S. B. Tackaberry, Polk. 



No. [W. Barnes, Cherokee. 



Nothing has been done to destroy them ; it is very doubtful about their remaining 

 here all winter. From the coast counties a more complete statement may be obtained. 

 [ J. M. Glasco, Upshur. 



None. [P. S. Watts, Hardin. 



Has never been found there to my knowledge. [P. S. Clarke, Waller. 



Burning the old cotton-stalks. [H. J. H. Brensing, Bowie. 



No. [R. Wipprecht. 



None that I know of. [O. H. P. Garret, Washington. 



No. [J. H. Krancher, Austin. 



None have been so found. [C. B. Richardson, Rusk. 



None ; as the thing would be impossible from the great abundance of timber in West- 

 ern Texas, and the great distance between farms. [W. T. Hill, Walker. 



None that I know of. My impression is that its winter-quarters would be as hard 

 to find as a remedy to effectually destroy the caterpillar. [J. W. Jackson, Titus. 



None whatever. [Natt. Holman, Fayette. 



None. [A. Underwood, Brazoria.
